A total of 38 dogs competed in a live stage show. The contest entries raised more than $400 alone for Seattle Humane's Pet Project, which provides basic veterinary care, pet food and supplies to the pets of people living with HIV/Aids or cancer. We had an awesome time presenting this popular event with our emcee, Nicole Brodeur, as well as our fantastic panel of drag queen judges including Gaysha Starr, Donnatella Howe, Kara Sutra, Siren/Haily "Ms. Gay Seattle," and Gina King. Thank you to everyone for the lively costumes and commentary!  Check out photos from this year's contest here. We also had a fantastic turnout at the Seattle Pride Parade. Thank you to everyone who came out to support community and stand up for love. Did you participate? Click here to view parade photos!
